Ingredients
1 cup chickpea flour
1 cup water
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp dried oregano
1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
1 small zucchini (sliced)
1 red bell pepper (sliced)
1/4 cup black olives (sliced)
2 tbsp fresh basil (chopped)
2 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 450°F and place a cast-iron skillet inside to heat.
2. In a bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, water, 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and oregano until smooth. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.

4. Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven, add a drizzle of olive oil, and pour in the batter. Swirl to cover the base evenly. Return to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are crisp.
5. While the socca is baking, prepare the tahini sauce by mixing tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and nutritional yeast. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
6. Once socca is done, top with roasted vegetables, black olives, fresh basil, and drizzle with tahini sauce.
